New rules are in blue.
General Rules
No racist, sexist, etc. comments at all!
Do not hurt other peoples feelings. I mean, come on! It's just mean!
No chatspeak unless it is in OCC! I can't stand anything except for the basics!
In general, whenever you are speaking of a person, do not say anything mean. If the admins catch you fighting with another member, you are at risk of being banned.
If you are a member and see a post that breaks these rules, click the "REPORT TO ADMIN" link in the bottom right hand corner of that person's post.
I have the right to add more rules.
Usernames
You must take the user name of at least one of your cats.
(If you have read the books you know how to do this)
If you wish, you may use an appreviat
No numbers (Come on! you can be creative!)
Roleplaying rules
No godmodding (Becoming totally invincible)
No power-playing (Controlling another person's character)
-Try to use correct spelling, grammar, etc.
-See the little spell-check button? Use the little spell-check button!
At least six well-written sentences per post. I have roleplayed at least thirty with a newborn kit on a regular basis so you can't say that I am being too strict. [If you have an important character (i.e. Leader, Deputy, Medicine Cat) then you must have at least eight.]
Character Creation Rules
You are limited to only one important position (i.e Leader, Deputy, Med. Cat) unless you area G-mod, or Administrator. Admins can have three, G-mods can have two.
If you are permitted more than one high position, you may only hav eone of each rank (You can't have two Medicine Cats, etc. You may also not have a Medicine Cat and Medicine Cat Apprentice, because your Medicine Cat Apprentice will eventually become a full Medicine Cat.)
You may have as many characters as you can keep track of, but they must ALL be actively roleplayed.
You must put a list of your characters in your signature, and a character must be added into your signature before they can be accepted.
When posting your bio, put your title like this:
Cat name/Rank/Clan/Gender
They cannot have special powers
They cannot wear clothing unless they are kittypets and their twolegs dress them up. Collars are allowed only in cats without Clans.
They can not be "the one who will save the Clan" without talking to me first about it.
Their bios must be posted in wither the Creation Board or the Unfinished board, never the Accepted Board. The Password for both of these boards is 'cat attack'
All important characters (Leaders/Deputies/Medicine Cats) must ask to me before taking this position.
If there is more than one person wanting a particular position, Then you must audition for your part.
All ranks are welcome.
If you want to make an apprentice, then you have to have another cat agree to be their mentor, and you must mention it somewhere in your bio.
When you make your character, you must put his/her Clan and pretend that the cats have always been in their respective Clans. [Kittypets turned Clan cats are allowed, Outcasts are allowed, etc.]
If you want to have kits, there must be a father.
Queens can kit year-round.
About Ranks
-Kits
Will always stay near the Nursery, until they are 6 moons old.
May not leave the camp without a queen or a warrior.
Take the name *name*kit.
Apprentices
Will always stay in the Apprentices' Den until they become a warrior.
May only leave the camp with a warrior's or the leader's permission.
Take the name *name*paw.
Warriors
Will always stay in the Warriors Den until they become Elders.
May leave the camp at anytime, but is good to make sure the leader knows about it first.
Will take the name the leader gives them.
If you chose to make a cat that is already a warrior you may choose their entire name.
If your apprentice becomes a warrior your leader will discuss their name with you, but does not need to take your suggestion.
Elders
Will always in the Elders Den until they go to join StarClan.
Normally too old to leave the camp, and almost permanently retire to the Elders Den.
May or may not change their name.
Medicine Cats
Will always stay in the Medicine Cat's den, until they pass to StarClan.
Take whatever name their Mentor gives them.
If your Medicine Cat Apprentice gets their full name before their mentor dies, their mentor will discus the name with you, but does not have to take your suggestion.
Again, If you create a Medicine cat, you may choose both parts of the name.
May leave the camp whenever.
Have dreams from StarClan.
Have many herbs to help with the sick and injured.
Deputy
Keep their warrior name.
Will stay in the warriors den until the current leader dies or they become an Elder.
May leave the camp whenever, but is best if the leader knows about it.
In charge of organizing patrols.
Leader
In charge of everything that goes on in the Clan.
Take the name *name*star.
May leave the camp whenever.
Will always stay in the Leader's den until they retire or pass on to StarClan.
Have nine lives.
Kittypets
There may only be a few kittypets, since we don't want the house cats to outnumber the wild ones.
If you want to be a kittypet, please ask! Don't be disappointed if we say no.
Kittypets have a one part name that is always Twoleg-ish (i.e Duchess, Princess, Lucky).
Kittypets cannot go into Clan territory under risk of being attacked.
Kittypets will get their own house. Pm me to get this set up.
Kittypets may have kits, but the kits will almost always be taken away by the owners. To have a litter that's "saved" pm Sunset.
Loners
There may only be a few loners, since we don't want a huge mob of loners running around.
If you want to be a loner, please ask! Don't be disappointed if we say no.
Loners usually have only one part of a name. Like Clan cats have two parts (Ice & star), loners have one (Ice or Star). Some loners, if they were once Clan cats, choose to keep their names.
Loners cannot go into Clan territory, and if they do, they are in risk of being attacked.
General Clan Rules
The word "Clan" is to be capitalized in all circumstances. ((i.e. WindClan, the Clans)).
The second part of the cat's name is to be lowercase. ((i.e. Jadewing, Blossompelt)).
At times, the header will say that a certain Clan is closed. This means that the Clan cannot have a cat created in it, until it opens again.
All Clans are currently open.
moon=month.
3 moons=1 season.
4 seasons=1 year.
Gatherings
From each Clan there will always be: The Leader, Deputy, Medicine Cat, maximum 5 warriors and maximum 2 apprentices.
When the moon is covered, the gathering is over.
Time Passage
Every month your cats ages will be edited, and if they change rank you will be asked to add a bit to their history.
Real Life time versus Roleplay time is:
1 Roleplay Moon=2 Real Life Weeks.
That is used as a guideline for ages and time passage, but a thread may last much longer.
NeedleClan
You may only have two NeedleClan Cats.
NeedleClan does not believe in StarClan as a whole[but a few cats may believe], so there is no Medicine Cat.
They do not allow love, and see it as a weakness.
Elders and Medicine Cats are not allowed. The only ranks that NeedleClan has are Leader, Deputy, Warriors, and Apprentices. See below for information about Queens and Kits.
Mating is allowed only by selected warriors, and there is no love involved. Kits are made apprentices at three moons of age. They become warriors at 7-9 moons of age, and must fufil cetain duties before they can be treated as full warriors. The Leader and Deputy are considered selected warriors, and an unselected warrior may not become deputy.
You may only have one selected warrior unless §unset says so.
